RIGHT-HANpEoNEsS.
Why the Left Hand should be Trained as
Well as Its More Favored Mate,

Why the Left Hand should be Trained as
Well as Its More Favored Mate.
One writer has asked the question:
"Why should not hands be trained like
eyes,. giving free field to each, and
no favor to either9 The antiquity and
universally of the preference are
enough to cause suspicion that it has
now got into the blood, and is not
likely to bc easily cradicated."
That the left hand may be educated
to an efficiency equal to that of the
right has been repeatedly proven.
Whoever listened to the charming mu-
sic from violin in the hands Of Ole
Bull, will remember with what won
derful skill he manipulated the strings
Of his instrument with the thumb and
fingers of his left hand. Our most
celebrated musicians, by long years OF
study and practice, are enabled to use
the left hand with equal ease and pro-
iciency as the right. In fact, many of
the most difficult parts in instrumental
music are performed with the left
hand.
Certainly nothing would be lost by
any one who was able to use the left
hand, for many things which are now
done only by the right. Then, in case
of any casualty which should deprive
one Of the use of his right hand, it
would not necessitate the tedious and
often unsuccessful effort of educating
the left hand to perform the ordinary
work of life.
The education of the left hand with
the right should be commenced early
in life, and is worthy of the considera-
ton of those having the training OF
youth in their care. Golden Rstie.

Il is claimed that the electric typewriter
will be valuable as local aid to bust
ness, and offers many advantages over
the telephone. Ode advantage claimed
for il is that no matter whether q person
called up is at his place of business or
not, the message can be printed through
the medium of his typewriter, and will be
there for perusal on his return. The dis
patches printed are in letter form, and
not an endless tape. The instru-
ment, which has been christened the dy-
namogrsph, is considered by Patent
Office official to be one Of the greatest in
ventions upon which patents have been
issued. The electricians do not stint
their praise, and are positive that the
machine Will greatly simplify business in
accommodation. Some of the electri-
clans of this city who have seen the in
strument, notably Professor Berlinger OF
the Bell Telephone Company, said that
the dynamograph is destined to take its
place as 9 powerful adjunct to telegrephy,
and will be by no means rival that the
telephone can afford to scorn. John
Russell Young, ex-Minister to China, has
taken hold Of the new invention, and Is
president OF. the company which is to put
1t into practical operation.

It Was the Other Paper,
Albany Evening Journal,

A newspaper man of this city was
awakened shortly before midnight re-
Gently by an excited Individual at his
door bell VINO demanded to know why
his paper had not been left as usual.
The publisher was somewhat taken aback
by the intrusion, hut tried to explain
matters the best he could. The in
dignant subscriber explained: "This is
the third time within q year that have
missed my paper. tried to buy one at
the newsdealer's, but could not, and l
made up my mind to let you know that
you must deliver it regularly" The pub
Usher hunted over his house in the dark
until he found copy of the paper and took
it to the man at the front door, when the
latter replied: "This is not the paper

The emphatic language Of the publisher
as he slammed the door at the man who
had walked him up can possibly be i'm.
agined. We will not repeat it.

How different it is with the railroads

quires the the inspection of locomotive
boilers, or cars, or switches, or bridges,
or tracks, or culverts, nor is there any
law that requires railroad to provide its
cars with fire extinguishing apparatus,
or to keep its train crews drilled to fight
fire. Nor are conductors, engineers or

to show whether or not they are compe-

whatever that 1t will get the sort Of serv-

$1,000 at faro in four of the principal
gambling houses in this city, between
Tuesday noon and midnight on Saturday.

made in what might be termed single
sitting by one man in this city; at least
il is the largest in the memory Of some Of
the Oldest gamblers.
SIT was "crusher" on the "bank
rolls" for the gaming houses were the
losers, and il is said that in one of the
houses he "broke the bank" the pro
prietor being obliged to "turn the box"
indicating that the cspital was exhausted.
The losses were divided as follows:
Gilligau's, $1,000; Mortor's, $1,000;
Sholes', $1,000; Towards, $500.
Stoll is not 8 professional gambler
He is an engineer on the st. Paul road,
and lives at sc Eighth street with his
wife, formerly Rosina Georg, who few
years ago attained considerable notoriety
as proprietress of dance house in the
Ninth ward. After its suppression by

which she had accumulated. Stoll followed

In addition TO their losses to Stoll, the
house lost considerable money to other
